    Sara
    from London, KY asked:
    February 15, 2021
    I am a bit confused with the "actual viewing" dimensions. Does that mean only what is inside the fireplace (excluding the frame) or Is that including the frame? I just need the dimensions for the front face that I will be seeing on the wall. I just didn't know if that was found under "product dimensions" or "actual viewing dimensions".
    1 Answer
    The "viewing dimensions" is the size of the opening of the insert, within the outer frame and/or surround.  The outside dimensions of the frame/surround will depend on which of the options you select for that feature in the "Choose Decorative Surround" option on this page.
